German producer Bosch expands car equipment production in Romania, 600 new employees in sight

German group Bosch will finalize work on two new facilities in Romania, in Cluj – Napoca and Blaj, and plans to hire 600 people for the new production facilities. At Blaj, production started in June, while at the new facility at Jucu, near Cluj – Napoca, production is scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of the year. The investment at Blaj, some EUR 50 million, will create 300 new jobs. At the Blaj site, two Bosch production units were already operating, with almost 600 employees. The expansion of the production unit in Cluj will need a EUR 70 million investment, which will bring 300 new jobs. Both factories will produce parts for the car industry. editor@romania-insider.com
